Sci-Fi Short Film: ADAM 2. 0 - DUST

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
Two friends take a high tech risk for the chance to talk to their best friend one more time. ADAM 2. 0 by Devin J. Dilmore Connect with the Filmmaker: ADAM 2. 0 To get more of that 80s news VCR effect, lower the video setting to 360p, but 240p is more accurate, but too jaggie for 80s TV which are analog.
Also, sigh the VHS tape glitches are not usually that bad and would be more mixed into the analog signal. When VHS tapes really turned bad, usually actual tape damage - then youd have get tracking issues on the bottom, video warping on the side, perhaps more static in parts as the tape got read.
The Picture in Picture during the newscast is very much a modern HD camera. Also doesnt seemed to move like a heavy Betacam that a person would hold, they tend to use the zoom function rather than walk around something like that, especially if its supposed tobe dangerous.

Good thing Kraftwerk and CRT Screen GUI except for the bottom line ingesting that breaks the style. The boy's glasses although black and bold are much to too fancy and new.
Maybe it's due to education in the imperial system but this is scientific fuzzy to say the least. The calculation rate of 100MHz is not enough to operate a smartphone - unsure what is told here. Radioactivity shielding like this must be beta / electron or alpha radiation. (for alpha a piece of paper would be enough) for gamma it is not very useful. Assume everything related to electron is damaged soon.

Dust may be sued over the use of WKRP, which was the fictional Radio Station in Cincinnati where Johnnie Fever worked and Lonnie Anderson was the blond bombshell Secretary, and Gordon Jump was the Boss, and where WKRP did the live Turkey drop from the helicopter for Thanksgiving, reporting the carnage live on the air, as the turkeys, which cannot fly, fell out of the sky. I’m sure that Using the WKRP call sign would be an intellectual property infringement, in a copyrighted Television Series, unless Dust gained a prior agreement with the owners of that series.

100, 000, 000 instructions per second.
Yeah that'd be 100mhz at 1 instruction per cycle, but computers generally do more than that.
The 1975 Cray 1 supercomputer did 160 million instructions per second.
By the mid-90s home computers outperformed that. The original 1994 100mhz Pentium did 188 million instructions per second.
A 2020 Threadripper 3990X does 2, 356, 230 million instructions per second, in other words it's up over 2 trillion instructions per second.

Obviously, they did not do any research into call letters for radio and tv stations. anything east of the Mississippi river starts with a W. Anything west of the Mississippi river starts with K. So it would be impossible to have a TV station starting with a W in Los Angeles. Pure call back to WKRP in Cincinnati, which is east of the Mississippi river.

movie: 11 mins
man breathing heavily: 2 mins (one fifth of the whole clip)
silence, various pauses, boring pans over clocks, books, phones and other inanimated stuff: 2 mins total (another fifth of the whole clip)
not every dust is a great movie it seems

Good video!
I case of anyone liked the vibes in the ending titles, it's from the Brotherhood track of Makeup and Vanity set artist. You can find it on Spotify. One of my favorite. This artist have other good tracks for the sci-fi purpose.

reply

You know guys, 100 million computations per second is not much, average home PC from 90s can do this, but anyway, I lost it when he pulled out li ion battery from that capsule, that was supposed to be some kind of memory device lul
reply

So, is the life of Adam actually dead, and this was able to download all of his memories and thoughts, new and old Not sure if I missed the point, but, the story is sure opens the doors of the mind. Very kool, regardless.
reply

That was good. I don't hold with putting our memories, or essence or what used to be ourselves into machines. You get one chance at life, when it's over it's over. Nothing will ever change that. Come to Christ!
reply

An opening news report from WKRP Love it. Even though it's L. A. and should be KKRP, I'll allow it. I just love this entire effort. This 80's fan says: A great job and congrats to all!
reply

What an awesome computer geek he was - playing an EXTREMELY old tic-tac-toe game but had enough processing power to interface with bleeding-edge technology to make people relive memories.
reply

There is an actual WKRP in Cincinati Ohio. As you are traveling north on I-75 once you start coming into the city look to your left and you will see the building with the call letters WKRP.
reply

I like how he, s a younger kid and he says help me please That's nice to hear. Interesting movie good actors. We know it's good though because the directors good thank you.
reply

You have a little over 11 minutes to play with and you spend too much time with establishing shots, the long wake up, even the news report was too long.
reply

wow, a full movie is needed! amazing! the post fallout country, the 80s pc, the little dinosaurs, the star trek t-shirt, everything perfect
reply

i cant see. lemme try somthing 10: 40
Lifts blanket and Makes a grunting noise like lifting a heavy bolder .

reply

Wait if he remembrance of what they remember of him. is it really him Or just an imitation of their memory's that ai reacting to
reply

when u clearly see he is holding a lithium battery. making it seem like some kind of memory module. how dum do they think ppl are.
reply

Don't you know that the Adam 2. 0 appeared on the earth almost 2, 000 years ago, was killed, and then rose from the dead
reply

Acting was subpar for this didn't even try to act like he twisted wires for that part. kinda dumb responses to stuff to
reply

Dang. I don’t miss our old computers! At all. Good short. Left hanging though, so definitely need more please
reply

WKRP is in Cincinnati, not Los Angels - must have been a damaged memory capsule that recorded that news report.
reply

Those little things that ran across the road, we've got those in Texas. Mean little muthers too and they bite. Ha ha
reply

You can't have great dust shorts without duds like these. Keep em coming. There are always gems that come out.
reply

all these 'short films' aren't what i consider short films. they are just snippets. There's no resolution!
reply

What about the original narative from the first three films Will there be more with a final resolution
reply

Great stuff. Some of the sequences were a bit dark in terms of being able to see the video. FYI.
reply

He's on WKRP in _Cin - Cin - Nat - Los Angeles. _
The news show music was authentic 1970s L. A.

reply

Hey. Devin Dilmore here, the director. If you have any questions about this film feel free to ask.
reply

I thought this had something to do with Oats Studios at first when I saw Adam 2. 0
reply

I would expect a memory module to have more wires than two, or no wires since It fits.
reply

hi we study this film for school and this is very cool and interesting
reply

WKRP TV just doesn't sound right. Without the full cast alive it just isn't right.
reply
